Proll

Hello ladies,may i ask you for your help?could you take a minute and look at my proll on the left side of the blog?I was wondering if i should write my postings in German and have a google gadget to translate the German into the language you speak. My english is anything but good and some of my German friends told me that they will get all kinds of funny translations if they add the text in a online program.What do you think?

Hi Claudia, I just placed my vote. First of all, your english is very well-written and I find it charming! I voted for English. I have a blog friend whose blog is in German and when I use the translator, it is very strange and hard to understand. So I guess you are in a dilemma. Hope the poll shows you a clear winner!Hugs Jeanette

Hi Claudia I voted for English too ,my German is very rusty ,lol.Your Englsih is perfect for me.My mother tongue isn't English either ,but I prefer writing in English cause most of the blog world is in English .We understand you . A mistake here and there ,who cares, We love your cards!!!!

No Claudia, your English is just beautiful, I applaud anyone who can speak and write any language other than their mother tongue, I have absolute respect for that, as I cannot speak your language and for you to master mine so eloquently is indeed admirable.

Please continue in English. Your minor errors in what is a very difficult (and illogical) language, only add to your charm xx

Hi Claudia,thanks for your nice comment in my blog :)I think your english is well written, and easy to understand for us who do not have english as main language. (my english is horribly,..hehe)I think you should do as you feel is right for you..On the other side - there is a huge blogger world writing in english, but I understand your dilemma.I vote for english :)Hugs Inger

girl your english is great and very well written! I'm a kind of in the same position being dutch and writing in english is not always that easy *lol* but on the other hand why bother, hey at least we try;o)

If you are going to write in german, that's also fine with me I do understand that too.

Hi Claudia, I voted for English. Pelase don't switch to German, I love reading on your blog so much. Even when you make little mistakes, they are cute! I love your cards and would really miss being able to read the description.

Hi Claudia, I occasionally use a translator to translate my comments onto someone's blog who isn't English and I dread to think how it must read to them!! LOL!! I have to agree with everyone else and say that your English is better than mine, and I AM English!!! LOL!! However, if you are more comfortable posting in German, which is after all your native language, then I will happily use the translator button and see what it throws up - sometimes it's a great giggle and I have been known to sit playing on Babel just for the laughs!! But rest assured, your English is Practically Perfect in Every Way!!! ;o)(pssst... I also wanted to say an enormous THANK YOU to you for your very, very kind offer - I could hug you!!!)

Hi Claudia,I have voted but I think that it is really up to you...I would really miss your writings if you did decide to write in German. Your English is very good, in fact, I would say that you write better English than me and I am suppose to be English..hehe.I am in awe of your talent both as crafter and your bilingual achievements. hugs Rachxxx

I'm French, so I don't mind if there are mistakes in your English.One thing I'm sure of... I you write in German I won't be able to understand a single word of what your write... and it would be a pity !!

I voted for English as I don't understand German, but if you had a translator thing that would work. You wouldn't lose me as a reader either way because your cards are adorable and that translates to any language!

Hi Claudia, I would vote English, but that is for selfish reasons as it is my mother tongue. What ever you choose your blog would still be a treasure and of course I would still visit, but it is so nice to be able to read your posts, and even the few little mistakes you make (very rarely I must say), make me smile. As a country the UK is very bad at teaching other languages and you have my admiration at how well you write in englsh and I wish I could return the compliment and reply in German to you. Anyway whatever you decide my dear will be fine an as I say I will still visit everydayHugs Jacqui xx

I voted for English, I understand everything you say, but I do feel for those who only understand German, there is one blog I go to and just admire her work and never leave a message because it is in another language and I am not sure if she would understand, maybe I should leave something just in case :)

I have ,very selfishly, chosen English. This is my mother tongue and when I read your blog Caludia, it is enchanting. Your command of the English language is fantastic and as everyone says, the odd slip up is endearing. More please!LOLViv xxx

Claudia, your English is very good. I tried the Google translator on my blog, and my husband (he is German) was hysterical over the translation. Half of it didn't even make sense. Needless to say, I immediately disabled it before I offended any German friends!
